This was my response when husband asked why the clocks weren't changed around our house.
What would happen if I just stayed on my own time? Everybody can do their own spring forward, fall back crap. I'm just going to continue on in my own time zone where it is what time it is and you can't just say "oh I want it to be later now so I'm just going to change my clock ". I mean really, its march...its usually cold, rainy and dreary... do we really need the sun to still be out at 8pm? I am going to say no. But at 6 am when people are getting up to make their way to work, is too much to ask for the sun to be up too? (Apparently it is to much to ask)
How arrogant are we, as humans, that we think we can just change time whenever we want?!? What if people decided they didn't like August anymore because it was too hot. Would we take a vote and just skip ahead to September?!? Egads!!!
So I guess I'm trying to say that I feel some dislike for this whole daylight savings time thing. My baby doesn't realize that we switched time. So now the schedule we had going is all off. And yes, its only off by an hour but my 3 year old didn't get the time change memo either and an hour just seems to make a big difference. And my poor body still goes thru night shift flash backs at times. This stupid hour has made my night crazies flare up. I don't mind the night crazies so much at night. Its in the morning when it hurts. And when morning comes and I'm sleeping really well and my dreams are very sweet and then.... in the distance there is a baby crying and then... an earthquake...no wait...that's the 3 year old jumping on my bed and that crying... its not in the distance its right beside me and its not crying its wailing..... When all that stuff in the previous run on sentence
happens... I curse the people who have put this daylight savings time upon me! So, no!!! No, I say!!! I will not move my clocks up!!! Who's with me?
The Thing I Have Been Wondering

It has been a rough year. That is no lie. We have had one challenge after
another, and if this were a dark comedy one would recognize that it has
been fun...
